Notes Married:
• "Exeter Flying Post" 09 Sep 1824, page 4:
MARRIED.
On Thursday, in London, Lord Eliot, eldest son of the Right Hon. the Earl of St. Germans, to Lady Anne Cornwallis, grand-daughter of the late Marquis Cornwallis.
• "Morning Post" 6 Sep 1824, page 3:
MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.
On Thursday last, was married at St. James's Church, Piccadilly, by the Right Hon. and Rev. Lord Bayning, Lord Eliot, only son of the Earl of St. Germans, to the Right Hon. Lady Jemima Cornwallis, third daughter of the late Marquis Cornwallis. The lovely bride, who is the universal favourite of a numerous circle of friends, was given away by the Viscount Sydney, and attended to the Altar by her amiable sisters, the Ladies Lousia, Mary, and Elizabeth Cornwallis, and Lady Jemima Mann, as bridesmaids.
After the ceremony, the happy pair set off in a new travelling chariot and four, for Woburn Abbey, the seat of his Grace the Duke of Bedford.
Amongst the company we noticed ---
The Marchioness Cornwallis, Earl of St. Germans, Lady Caroline Eliot, Lady Susan and Colonel Lygon, Duke of Norfolk, Hon. Sophia and Mary Townshend (Lord Sydney's daughters), Hon. Caroline and Emily Townshend (Lord Bayning's sisters), Miss Sinderby, Mr. Hamilton, and the Rev. Henry Hasted.
In the evening, the Marchioness Cornwallis entertained the Wedding Party with a sumptuous dinner, at the house of her Grace the Duchess Richmond, in Waterloo-place, where her Ladyship is at present residing. We feel assured that the friends of both families will join with us, in wishing that this auspicious union may be productive of the most permanent felicity to the amiable pair, who, from the high character his Lordship bears, appear to have an equal claim to "Heaven's choicest gifts."
